Liferaft Colour?

Anyone know what colour this liferaft would be? It looks fairly dark in this image from " A-20 Havoc in Action No. 1056. " I thought it should be yellow, but is it a grey or a dark olive green?

Re: Liferaft Colour?

It is possible we are looking at the bottom of the life raft, and some of those I have seen/recovered have been black to dark grey on the bottom. The "NO STEP" inscription is probably to stop anyone walking on the stowed dinghy.

Hopefully thats the correct answer!
